Master of Science in Civil and Environmental Engineering

University of California – Berkeley Campus

Berkeley, California, USA
Master of Science in Civil and Environmental Engineering
Duration9 Months
LevelMasters Program
  • Civil and Environmental Engineering is widely acknowledged to be a national and international leader. US News and World Report has ranked CEE’s civil engineering graduate program and its environmental engineering graduate program No. 1 for 2018
  • Students can select one of the following seven concentrations:
    • Energy, Civil Infrastructure and Climate: The objective of ECIC program is to educate a cadre of professionals to analyze complex problems — such as energy efficiency of buildings, environmentally-informed design of transportation systems, embodied energy of construction materials, and electricity from renewable sources, as well as biofuels — from engineering, environmental, economic, and management perspectives
    • Engineering and Project Management: It educates students for leadership positions in managing infrastructure, especially construction projects, and within field, project, and corporate management
    • Environmental Engineering: It encompasses air quality engineering (AQE), water quality engineering (WQE), and environmental fluid mechanics and hydrology (EFMH). AQE focuses on indoor microenvironments, plume dispersion, urban and regional air pollution, as well as global changes in climate and atmospheric chemistry
    • GeoSystems (Geoengineering): It encompasses a broad area of teaching and research in geotechnical and geological engineering, environmental geotechnics, and applied geophysics
    • Structural Engineering, Mechanics, and Materials
    • Systems (Civil Systems): The focus of the Systems Program is to understand complex large-scale systems and to develop tools for their design and operation
    • Transportation Engineering: It is concerned with the planning, design, construction, operation, performance, evaluation, maintenance, and rehabilitation of transportation systems and facilities, such as highways, railroads, urban transit, air transportation, logistic supply systems and their terminals
